Ayubhowan!

I’m Sala.

An artist whose canvas is the body.
A yogi whose practice is life.
Presence is my medicine.

I create spaces for practice, ritual and self-inquiry, inviting us back into sacred relationship with ourselves, each other and the living Earth.

Not separate from creation.
Part of its becoming.

Welcome to Salasbananas.

Explore

Salasbananas is the living ecosystem through which my work moves.

Rooted in care, consent and belonging, it unfolds through practice, ritual, art, self-inquiry, retreats, gatherings and collaboration, at the Queer Temple in Sri Lanka and in spaces beyond it.

A space for the artist, the visionary and the queer soul. For those ready to be seen, heard and met as they are.

This is not a world to observe from the outside. It is an invitation to participate. To arrive as all of you. To take up space. To create.

Pause……Take a breath…..

Enter through whichever doorway feels alive and discover what is in bloom this season.
